Module 1 Summary
Value
Use these concepts to focus your
improvement project
Waste
Scientific
Method
(PDCA / A3)
Use the A3 and PDCA methodology (i.e.
scientific method for improvement) to
manage and communicate your
improvement project
Empowered
Staff
Alignment
Use these concepts to maximize your
improvement project’s chance for success

Module 2 Summary
A3-Problem Solving
(11 x 17)
Use for:
• Complex problems
• Gaining consensus
• Communicating
• Managing the project
Use if:
• Root Causes to problems
are unknown
• Solutions aren’t obvious
Requires Planning (PDCA)
and data collection &
analysis
4
Documenting the Current State is beneficial
• Idea collection, observations, and discussions of “pain points”
engages staff , improves shared understanding and teaming
Tools
• Illustrates a process or patient pathway from both the staff and
patient’s perspectives
• The resulting documentation (a process map, observation sheets,
spaghetti charts, etc.):
•
Is easy to understand, highly visual, and aids the change process
•
Help to identify steps that don't directly contribute to patient care (bottlenecks,
constraints, problems/issues = waste)
•
Help to identify steps that do contribute to patient care (value-added)

Process Mapping
•A simple language not taught in medical school
•Organized visualization of interrelated activities
which combine to form a process, patient
pathway, or process of care
•There are more symbols, but these are the most
important:
Tools
Process Maps
Time
Observation
Sheets
Spaghetti
Charts
•Process Mapping can be mapped in several ways!

You can use TOS or more
detailed Process Maps to
further understand
problems
Using Time Observation Sheets*
Multiple Observations
Tools
Running clock is used
Calculations can be done after (i.e. 8:20 – 8:02 = 18 mins)
Remarks can be captured
for further analysis

Scheduler/Registrar checks
patient into CareConnect and
directs PT to waiting room

While doing observations, you can find more
“waste” when you examine with a model*:
Process Maps
Time Observation Sheets
Spaghetti Charts
Tools
Process Maps
1) Defects
• How many defects
are the Care
Coordinator
finding? What is
the impact?
5) Transport
• Is there any
transport waste?
2) Overproduction
• Are there any
unnecessary
forms we ask the
patient to fill out?
6) Inventory
• Is there any
inventory waste?
• Patient is waiting
at least 24
minutes. Is the
MD waiting? Other
bottlenecks?
4) Not Utilizing
Talent
• Can the registrar
be trained to do
consent if the
Care Coordinator
isn’t available?
7) Motion
8) Extra-Processing
3) Waiting
• Is the PT being
moved too much?
*Template for practicing 8 wastes is available
• Is there any
rework from
defects or other
waste?

Using Time Observation Sheets*
Tools
Waiting: Why 18 minutes waiting for the Care
Coordinator to do consent forms!
Process Maps
Not utilizing Talent: Can another function help
when CC is doing Plan of Care Scheduling?
Overproduction: Are all of
the forms necessary?
Defects & Extra Processing:
Why are their defects?
What type? What is the

Once the Current State is understood, you can analyze the
“root causes” of the waste (next module) to eliminate them
